NEW YORK, Dec 24 — The Washington Wizards signed guard/forward Jarell Eddie and waived center Ryan Hollins yesterday.
The 6-foot-7, 220-pound Eddie went undrafted in 2014 out of Virginia Tech. He has spent the last two seasons with the Austin Spurs of the NBA Development League.
Hollins, who was signed as a free agent on Nov. 30, appeared in five games for the Wizards and averaged 1.6 points in 10 minutes per game.
Boston Celtics center Jared Sullinger returned to action after missing one game with back spasms.
Hornets center Al Jefferson served the final game of a five-game suspension for violating the NBA’s anti-drug policy. He will be eligible to return for Saturday night’s home game against Memphis.
The Orlando Magic recalled guard Devyn Marble from the Erie BayHawks of the NBA Development League. He was averaging 13.9 points and 2.9 assists. — Reuters
